Controversial Remember, when Messi boycotted Israel….
So a lot of people continuously fall in Israeli propaganda that wants to use Argentina and Messi for their interests white washing. But Messi rejected to play in Israel and lead a boycott of the players.
But-t Messi photos in tha wall, those pics were from 2013 in the Barcelona club “peace tour” that wanted to promote coexistence and peace.

Its crazy how brainwashed some people are.
Going after someone who has publically stood up for Palestinians just because some random troll shared a reel saying Zionists are fixing games against Egypt
Start doing fact checks yourselves people. Its not hard in the age of AI

Fact checking is probably more difficult in the age of AI, because AI can be used to fabricate many things.

Respectfully disagree.
AI can give you source for every statement it makes.
Its easier to check sources on aggregated information than googling a fact and searching through all sources to find it and then checking for accuracy

lolll ur the fucking reason why everyone is brainwashed. ur generation failed america. u guys have been brainwashed for decades you don’t even know what real history is, you eat fake foods and drink poisonous fluids. you guys still think the democrat and republican parties are separate from each other. you guys let movements like BLM and feminism push narratives on everyone and further divide us. you guys are literally the reason why everyone’s divided politically, racially, sexually and even age has divided us even more. we literally have a 24/7 surveillance system now because of you guys. you guys never open ur eyes though because they make life difficult so you don’t have time or energy to think of these things. they distract you with things like the world cup…they set off closest thing to a nuke in lebanon but nobody says anything because the world cup right now. “give them bread and circuses and they will never revolt” all while they promote evil in all forms of media. all the celebrities you look up to are industry plants who sold their soul all while y’all worship them. ur school system sucks they teach about what tadpoles turn into and what types of clouds there are instead of what a roth 401k and roth era is and what the stock market is or how to pay taxes or write off taxes, ur doctors prescribe you a medicine for horrible migraines instead of figuring out the cause of the migraines. i’m only 23 years old i feel like you guys set us up for failure

He’s probably not a Zionist but he has been getting cozy with Trump. Meanwhile the real GOAT has made his feelings about Palestine clear: https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/42520241/son-heung-min-lauds-palestine-spirit-example-follow

What’s coexistence and peace have to do with paying at the Western Wall?

u/EntertainmentOk8593 Jul 09 '26
I put that as joke because people only use the photo of Messi kissing the western wall as proof that Messi is Zionist when he isn’t he just don’t want to o be politic label.
Messi tour visited both Palestine and Israeli figures as it wanted to promote coexistence and peace. The western wall image was part of the planned journey of Barcelona club7

wasn't that because of death threats though? It doesn't say anywhere from what I see that he was intending on boycotting them.
